TAKE YOUR ELECTED OFFICIAL TO SCHOOL PROCLAMATION
CHEYENNE – The Wyoming State Board of Education (SBE) has joined the Wyoming Department of Education (WDE) and the Wyoming School Boards Association (WSBA) to support “Take Your Elected Official to School Month.”

The SBE recognizes the vital role towns, counties, and the state play in bringing a quality education to Wyoming’s children and youth. Take Your Elected Official to School Month provides an opportunity to celebrate these contributions by bringing elected officials and Wyoming’s dedicated educators together with students in the classroom setting.

“The State Board is excited to partner with the WDE and WSBA in this invitation,” said SBE Chairman Ryan Fuhrman. “We have been working to increase our collaboration with stakeholders in our work on producing a Profile of a Graduate and want to encourage all levels of our education system, from the policy makers to the practitioners, to seek each other out for the unique expertise and perspective they share. Amazing things are happening in our Wyoming schools.”

“The Wyoming legislature and all of our elected officials across the state have always been supportive of education, and it is important for all elected officials to be aware of what is happening in Wyoming classrooms,” said WSBA’s Executive Director Brian Farmer.

Wyoming schools are encouraged to reach out to elected officials with an invitation to spend time in a classroom and experience firsthand the life of a Wyoming student. Schools may locate the names of contacts of state and county elected officials on their respective county website. Contact information for state representatives may be found here.

The SBE also invites educators and elected officials to share their experience on social media by using the hashtag and tagging and .

WYOMING TEACHERS RECEIVE THE PRESIDENTIAL AWARD FOR EXCELLENCE IN MATHEMATICS AND SCIENCE
CHEYENNE - Two Wyoming educators – Katie McCue and Craig Williams – have received the Presidential Award for Excellence in Mathematics and Science Teaching (PAEMST). President Joe Biden made the winner’s announcement on Tuesday.

PAEMST is the highest recognition that K-12 mathematics, science, or computer science teachers can receive in the U.S. Nominations and awards are facilitated by the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy and the National Science Foundation.

“It is an honor to be selected for the Presidential Award in the area of mathematics and to join the ranks of other outstanding educators in mathematics and science education,” said McCue, a second-grade math teacher at Eastside Elementary in Cody. “Being selected for this award is particularly meaningful because I believe in being a champion for education and this award reinforces that my instruction is worth recognition. It is humbling even to be nominated for this prestigious award. I would like to thank all of my colleagues that have supported and mentored me.”

“The award has connected me to a network of high-achieving educators in Wyoming, while also opening doors to influence curriculum and best practices for students,” said Williams, a fourth-grade math teacher at Buffalo Ridge Elementary in Cheyenne. “I hope to connect with teachers nationally to network about best practices in the teaching of mathematics and bring those home. The award has increased my confidence in my ability to prepare my students in STEM fields and help mentor teachers in their own growth in mathematics.”

Each year, up to six finalists in each state are chosen for the award through a rigorous peer review process. The applications are forwarded to the National Science Foundation, where the final selection for the national Presidential Awardee is made. Enacted by Congress in 1983, the program authorizes the President to award 108 math and science teachers each year in recognition of their contribution to excellent teaching and learning.

“These teachers are not only leaders in their field, but they are an inspiration to students and colleagues alike,” said State Superintendent of Public Instruction Brian Schroeder. “I am truly proud of Craig and Katie for their dedication in teaching mathematics, and for their commitment to the students of Wyoming.”

The awardees come from all 50 states, the District of Columbia, the Department of Defense Education Activity schools, and schools in four U.S. territories. Each awardee will receive a certificate signed by President Biden and a $10,000 award from the NSF. Awardees will also travel to Washington, D.C., for an awards ceremony at a future date.
